Hi Brenda! Glad to hear I'm not the only one having the ol' anxiety chest pains! *l* My surgery is coming up next week (the 22nd) and I'm about to go out of my mind! Just a couple of days ago, I was sure that I must be getting ready to have a heart attack. My chest felt all tight and I could barely get my breath. I actually felt GOOD when I realized it was just anxiety! I think it's only natural to be nervous. Fear of the unknown can be powerful. But when I stop and tell myself that I control the amount of power that my fear has, it gradually begins to slack up. Just try your best to focus on all the good that will come from the situation. I know this is easier said than done (BELIEVE ME, I know!), but it's worth a shot, right? Hang in there - everything will work out just fine! Amy
